    Hello, I am Jotto999, and I suck at sleeping.

    Pretty much ever since I hit puberty I have found it increasingly harder and harder to sleep at night. Where most people have trouble staying up all night, for me it is nothing to "try" at, it just happens. In fact, I have to try to simply not be awake all night.

    I've tried ever trick. Drinking chamomile tea, meditation, exercising my arse off to make myself more tired, milk, pre-1 hour baths, watching repetitive tv, reading, large amounts of daily sun exposure...and combinations of all the above. None worked, or even helped.

    So one day I just said "Okay body, you win. If you don't want to sleep, then we won't".

    So here I am typing this at 3:30AM, wide-awake. If I can't sleep at night, then I won't, plain and simple. I'm 18 years old, almost done highschool, and I plan to find an evening shift job when I finish. My long term goals are writing science fiction/fantasy novels, and progressing in skill in my martial arts classes, possibly teaching at a dojo some day.

    So yep, that's me.

    Hello, I am Jotto999
    Welcome, Jotto!

    One of our first posters to make his (her? :o) first post on Boards in the Nocturnal forum! :D

    Have a glance round and see what threads might interest you; the Lair is the ongoing "chat / banter" thread and you're very welcome to join in. It might look like a huge thread but the reality is that the topic changes all the time (when there IS even a topic!) so it's not as if you have to read back far. Just hold your nose and dive in, you'll be fine ... ;)

    The Lair actually has a topic on occasion? I never seen no topic in there.

    Yup. Think about it. There is a flow of conversation... a continuos change of topic, but usually a topic.

    Not really, off topic does not mean topicless.

    But ironically, this is off topic in this thread. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 Jotto999


    Welcome aboard jotto. What kind of martial arts do you study?

    Ninjitsu.

    No I'm not a "ninja", especially not the stereotypical internet ninja. I study the martial art, nothing more.

    (It's really sad, but I always have to clarify that when I mention it on the internet, because ignorant people who don't know what they're talking about say things like "LOL you're not a ninja!".

    Ignorance and the internet go hand in hand I've found. I know the difference between Hollywood ninjas and students of ninjitsu. My fighting style is catch as catch can. I'm good, but I'm not taking on a bar full of angry bikers and walking away without a scratch.

    More of a lost in translation thing there I think. Over here we just make you sit in a room and be bored for a few hours.

    Yo!:D I really don't know what to say to new people anymore. If I keep telling them to watch out for the weirdos of the forum, I think I may have the four horsemen of the apocalyspe (DooM, Nerin, Kharn and Randy) on my case for scaring the newbies off.:pac:
